3.00 Credits
3 credits African American Perspectives studies the literary works of major authors of African American heritage. We will examine poetry, fiction, and autobiographical narrative, in the spirit of Nobel laureate Toni Morrison's call to "talk about race in a manner which is not diminishing, demeaning,reductive, or ad hominem." As Morrison states, "Race is a very difficult thing to talk about, becausethe conversation frequently ends up being patronizing, guilt ridden, hostile, or resentful. But for those interested in the study of literature and the writing of literature, it is something you have to confront and think about." This course studies African American literature as a tradition in its own right, as well as a means of better understanding African American culture and American culture as a whole. Our reading will allow us to see the ways in which African American writers have contributed to, have been influenced by, and have transformed America.
